Righto, I will get a 21" rim onto the Dot and get it fettled, hope to see you all soon. Thank you all for the encouragement.

New bloke on this forum, hello all! Having previously been involved in road racing and never having ridden in a trial, I hoped to put this right with either my Dot or one of my Jimmy's. Reading all of the posts and disagreements about pre-65 bikes, I am discouraged and afraid that I might trangress unwittingly by trying to use a bike that wasn't regarded as correct. I think the 1959? Dot maybe ok, but I have seen many modified and even new Jimmy's and FB's at trials, so maybe I will leave mine in the shed to avoid being shouted at? I only wanted to ride 'em, there would be no danger of ever getting into the results at my age.
